When trying to decide how to pay for assisted living, one of the first questions that comes up is "How much does it cost?" With the impact of inflation, it's more important than ever to have up-to-date information when making a financial plan for senior living. To help shed light on real senior living prices, Caring.com has compiled proprietary cost data from its network of more than 75,000 senior living providers to provide insight into the average cost of assisted living in Las Vegas and 4 other cities in Nevada.
The State of Nevada and Las Vegas’ Clark County offer a wide variety of programs for seniors, many of which can help with financial assistance. The state’s Medicaid can help with assisted living costs, as well as the Personal Care Services (PCS) program and a Home and Community Based Waiver which helps with assisted living costs.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Nevada page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
